Water must have an impurity in it to be conductive. melted ice in nature would have various minerals that may make it conductive. Distilled water will not conduct the high amperage, low voltage required in the electrolysis process when separating hydrogen from the oxygen molecules in an oxygen generator. It would have impurities added to make it conductive.

WHY do ionic compounds conduct an electric current when they are melted or dissolved in water?

Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water because their ions become mobile and are able to carry electric charge through the solution. In the solid state, ions are locked in place and cannot move to conduct electricity.


Does solid sodium chloride conduct an electrical current?

Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity because the ions are in a fixed position and cannot move to carry an electrical current. It is only when sodium chloride is dissolved in water or melted that it can conduct electricity due to the mobile ions.
